i'd love to know your ~average slash you see in your league and runs.

ba/obp/slug and ERA.

i've done this before, but i never got those sort of results... i mean the guy never hit .400 in a year. that's purely LTM-caused, but curious if you have a higher offensive league, but still get better pitching from the truely elitely rated pitchers (i.e. not just a lucky season).

i want to confirm what i suspect. I think you have a higher ERA league than what i had when i did this several years ago (and not too out of proportion otherwise). i'm fairly sure if you add offense (upto a break-even point unknown) you also improve the results of the most elite pitchers in addition to the elite batters.

i think it creates greater stratification, and the game is written so that the elite stays elite and somewhat near historical values within reason... i'm sure some extreme settings and such could overcome the tendency, too.
